Welch Allyn Cardiopulmonary Product Offerings in the UK
Welch Allyn offers an extensive range of PC-based diagnostic modules, all of which are integrated into the Welch Allyn CardioPerfect Workstation. The Workstation represents the latest in innovative technology for PC-based diagnostic systems, integrating 6 different diagnostic tests into a single program and a single database.
Current diagnostic modules include, Resting ECG for PCs and Pocket PC, Exercise ECG, Event ECG, Holter ECG, Ambulatory BP System, and Spirometry.
The Workstation is completely scalable. It can be used on a single office computer with only one diagnostic module, but also on a hospital-wide network with the diagnostic modules distributed across many PCs. Using the existing PC/network infrastructure makes the system not only very efficient, but also extremely affordable. Other features include a Telemedicine option for transmission of data to other locations (e.g. - for an expert opinion) and a security system that is built into the software.
Currently this product is found in many physicians’ offices as well as hospitals around the world, where it provides doctors and nurses immediate access to the benefits of digital storage and retrieval of medical information. The Workstation interfaces with a variety of Electronic Medical Records Systems (EMRs) for improved work-flow and work-efficiency. More interfaces are being created every day, using an industry standard set of APIs.
